There's still around 78 of them on the Aussie VH register. (and goodness knows how many in NZ) Probably the only aircraft that was built by a lawn mower company. Graham

Wasn't there a proposal to put it back into production? Can't remember off-hand what it was to be called, but AirTourer or something....

Graham I would have said that it was produced by a company that also built lawn mowers. A bit like Transfield which also built bridges, but also produced the Transavia Airtruk.

Transfield created Transavia as a subsidiary for the purposes of building the Airtruk. That can be confirmed on the Transfield website, under History.
